Operations KA, the reconquest of the islands from Bali to Timor, was a partial success. However, its main objective was to set up Operation I-Go. This was the planned attack on Maccasar, but after it became apparent that the enemy was there in great strength, far greater than the 2 dvisions of infantry earmarked for the invasion, it was decided to scrap the operation and shift the forces invovled into Operation SHI. This plan was intended to harass the British shipping in the Indian Ocean and forestall an invasion of the Burma or Malaysia fronts. After sinking 4 carriers, several supporting vessels and crippling 3 battleships (we suspect that one of these was sunk, but have been unable to confirm to this date) the plan was declared a resounding success and the carriers involved, which had received crippling losses to their aircrew, were sent to refit and retrain. The Imperial Army is now involved in an operation to wrest control of Lanchow and it's oilfields from the Communist Chinese. This operation is going well, and though losses are heavy in both men and material, it is expected that the city will hold out for another month. The Imperial Navy is primarily strengthening the defensive perimeter and training new pilots and ships. Our surface forces have been pounding enemy beachheads in Borneo and the carriers continue to train. Once these forces are deemed ready, the Daihonei will initiate Operation Donryu. Major combat ship losses to date: CV__CVL__CVE__BB__CA__CL___DD__DE__APD__SS 12___04___01__12__10__23___95___08__15___56__Allied 01___00___00__03__02__05___29___00__10___31__Japan

I'm extremaly impressed by naval losses comparison and even this can't help Japan question - what are your merchant losses and how affectthis on your logistics? thanks I'm on the other side and in mid 43 so allied hammer will soon fall on me

veji1 -> RE: Here he comes again (6/29/2006 9:56:23 PM)
God I hadn't realised that you had sunk 12 CVs !!! This really shows that what makes the difference for the Allies is the LBA... Once they have bases in range, they'll just roll down to the heart of the empire step by step... It is really logical, but still frightening..

quote: ORIGINAL: Sneer I'm extremaly impressed by naval losses comparison and even this can't help Japan question - what are your merchant losses and how affectthis on your logistics? thanks I'm on the other side and in mid 43 so allied hammer will soon fall on me Merchant losses are not that high overall for Japan and it has not had much of an affect on operations. In fact I shut down some production of merchant vessels to speed up my carriers and save on HI points. I have no idea how it is affecting the Allies as they produce a lot more than I can. Here are the remaining ship losses ( I have combined AP/AKs and auxilliary ships, because they would have been a pain to count as individual types. TK: 8 Allied 22 Japanese AO: 4 Allied 2 Japanese AP/AK: 301 Allied 105 Japanese AUX: 283 Allied 79 Japanese Most of the auxilliary losses for the Allies appear to be PTs and various LCs. Japanese losses in this category are mostly PGs and PCs.

I understans especially I did sam AK losses till 5/43 - 30 no TK losses and I also converted part of merchant shipyards to naval ones to get Unryus fast I seek for any solution for 43/44 once again - impressive number of allied CV/BB sunk
